The Masters of Inaccurate Titles

Well, I found an old 32MB MMC card lying somewhere. This card is probably used by my old Siemens S65 and it contained some photos I took for fun… and in it I found this old photo taken a damned long time ago. I was puzzled why I took it and then I suddenly remembered why: I took it because I found it misleading! Our evening Chinese tabloids – be it Shin Ming or Lianhe WanBao – are masters of inaccurate titles.

As to why I said it’s misleading? That’s because from a certain distance, I can see the big green words says: “Scandalous Photos Leaked” and on the right you see Sun Yanzi’s photo. Only on closer examination would the small black words on the top make it known they are two separate news entirely. Simply put, at a glance you might be misled to believe it was Sun Yanzi’s photos instead.
